It would be cool to get a full tour of Buckingham Palace, It would take days to see it all I am sure. So many one of a kind antiques that are just so rare. It would be cool to get that same type of tour of the White house.

I used to bounce at a bar owned by an old Korea Vet and his wife....his wife was bat poop crazy....there was a town hall meeting about all the raids on bars (the local PD CS gassed the bar with her in it one night and she almost shot a few of the cops....they made on low level drug arrest...) She stood up and said "The problem is all these damn Jungle Bunnies! We need to get them gone!"

The stock ones are pretty ate up with mounting rash all around the lips of the rims.

I like the last ones the best, think they look classy instead of blingy.

Looking a the wheels available, these are all pretty tame on the bling thing.

I agree with sid....I like the stock look
Plastidip is cheap, easy and covers up an impressive amount of curb rash

These are the factory 20in RS Spyders. I like them the best, but difficult to find AND Expensive. Most I've found were $5000 for just the wheels.

+ 11ty billion. Sorry, but I really don't like the other three. Too blingy. But if you do go with one of them chromy jobs, don't forget the chrome "DUB" badge for the front fenders.

None of the wheels shown are chrome. They are all the same wheel silver as the originals.

Me no like the currently popular black wheel thing. To me, black wheels look like you lost your hub caps.

Will just keep the wheels I got while I hide and watch for a good deal on some used 20 inch RS-Spyders cheap. Found a listing from 6 months ago where a guy sold a set for $1200 with new tires.

They don't have curb rash, they has tire mounting rash. Paint is chipped and ate up around the edges of the lip next to the tire.

Well, figured out what was wrong with the wheels on the Cayenne...Only one of the four has the colored crest center cap! Knew something just didn't look right about them. Guess that new car haze is wearing off and starting to see the flaws.
